Because of sin, hostility existed between God and man, but God has sought to reconcile us back to himself through Christ.

1 Corinthians 9:19-23
When Paul ministered in various locations, he shared the Gospel in a manner that would speak to the culture of that area. We need not compromise the Gospel, but must be a church "incarnate" in our community, being a prophetic voice of the good news of Jesus.

Matthew 4:23
As we begin a series on Vineyard Values, we consider what Jesus meant by His Kingdom among us. To experience the Kingdom is to live with Jesus as your King. The Kingdom to come is manifest to us and through us now. It has come in power now. Followers of Jesus are to live in the upside-down values of His Kingdom.

As followers of Jesus, we know we must count the cost, but sometimes we work harder at getting out of situations, when we should be working on how we can get through them.

Genesis 1:26-27
In Genesis we see that humankind was created in God's image, bearing the marks of God, but not being God. Nevertheless, Jesus was the only true human who lived in the sinless humanity designed by God. How do we maintain our humanity in light of Artificial Intelligence? By living a cross-shaped life as Jesus did, serving God and others. Don't let AI consume you.
